A sermon based on Luke 15: 1-10 about how God comes to rescue us. A recording can be found below and the script below that.
When my wife and I were first dating we used to spend a lot of our time walking along the river and up the mountains around Abergavenny. And once we were climbing the Sugarloaf with some of our friends. We had made it up the one side to the top and were now coming down the other. This second side I knew very well as my Grampy had lived in a cottage halfway up so I’d been along that track many times. As we were coming down we passed the gate to the cottage (my grampy wasn’t living there anymore at this point but we still owned it) and I spotted a lamb inside the gate bleating loudly, it was trapped. Somehow it had got through the fence or over the walls from the mountainside into the cottage grounds and now couldn’t get back out.

A sermon based on Luke 14. 25-33. You can listen to it below, or read the script underneath (the audio and the script don't match perfectly).
Jesus has gathered quite a reputation for Himself by this point in Luke’s account. People are coming from all over to hear Him speak and see what He’ll do next. But Jesus isn’t interested in having lots of followers, unlike our culture of today where, especially my generation, are obsessed with how many followers you have on Twitter or on Instagram, where politicians ride or die based on how many people they can whip up to follow and agree with them.
Jesus isn’t interested in this. |
AuthorAn Anglican Curate in my 20's I was raised in an Anglican Church, went to a Youth Club run by an Evangelical Church, attended a Baptist Church while at Uni and was a member of a New Monastic Community after graduating. As such my faith has been influenced by these experiences and traditions into what I hope is a more rounded viewpoint. Archives
